When life throws a curveball, your instinct is to fight it, and figuring out how to work through it can be the hardest part. In this mainline episode of The Dad Voice, we’re getting real about adjusting to major life changes, navigating unexpected pivots, and why trying to get back to "how things used to be" is a trap.
We break down practical strategies for managing big transitions when you have an ADHD brain. From giving yourself permission to operate at a sustainable 80% capacity instead of burning out at 100%, to focusing on the small, controllable routines in your day, we share how to keep your foundation solid when everything around you is shifting.
In this episode:
Resistance Vs Revision: Why being able to pivot is actually easier than fighting the change altogether.
The 80% Rule: Why perfectionism is the enemy of adaptation.
Controlling the Controllables: Focusing on micro-routines during chaotic transitions.
The Growth Catalyst: Reframing uncomfortable shifts as a step forward, not a setback.
